You want HD-15 cables that have all 15 wires? And you want them cheap right?
Try: http://www.winfordeng.com/products/ext15hd.php
$ 4.25 for the cable. And if I may, take a look at Winford's way cool
breakout connector for the HD-15:

You would want to order the male version, with a male-female
extension cord. For a very low price, you get all 15 pins on a captive
wire board. I have one of these at my 6 meter SSB (K3) remote base site.
If I loose power, the K3 shuts down and stays down. By using this
breakout, and a parallel port relay port off the computer at the site,
I can tickle the K3 "remote on" pin, and save myself a drive to the site.
I don't think you can find anything more cost effective that a
BRK15HDM-R-FT and a EXT15HD-6, for $ 20.25 plus shipping . Online ordering.
